My Project

In our school, students love to learn. They come to school ready to show what they know. Sometimes they need help showing what they know. When I pull students in small groups, dry erase boards are an invaluable tool that shows students that thinking and work can change.

Making a mistake is not the end of the world, and you can erase it and try again.

This also helps students show what they know if they cannot verbalize an answer as quickly as others. Learning should be all inclusive with students having space to work through and grapple with an assignment.
